Name Jaderii (No last name)
Pronunciation Jah - deer - EE
Stage Prentice
Race Ice
Gender Female
Orientation Straight
Path Bandit
3 Base Traits Handsy – Jaderii likes to hug others and be close. She believes that giving others hugs helps them feel like they are important.
Bubbly – Since she hides a lot in her past she puts on a very cheery front. Most the times it's seen as genuine, though, since she does giggle and smile quite often.
Evasive – Jade isn't one that will share everything with someone right off the bat. She will even at times evade getting personal. To her it is a way for someone to hurt her and so she avoids it if she can.
Personality Jaderii keeps her true self hidden away from others, though its not too far from the front she puts on. Nothing overly personal is shared with others for fear that they will use it against her later on. Most of her friendships are one sided or generic in nature unless there is a true effort put in. That doesn't mean that she is incapable of developing a meaningful relationship it just means that she is more selective of who she gets close to. Too many people in her past have hurt her for her to go about trusting willy nilly.
After leaving home to get away from a fate she didn't want she has learned the hard way to be independent. Since she was somewhat sheltered in life before this is a big thing for her. Jaderii has grown to like this new found freedom and isn't likely to give it up any time soon.
While part of her front is to be a cheerful thing she actually giggles quite a bit in a genuine manner. The one thing she doesn't hide from most is the fact that she likes to laugh. If something amuses her then a giggle or chuckle is likely to be heard. Jaderii is proud that her sense of humor is still in tact despite certain events in her life. It is also this ability to laugh that keeps her from wallowing in sadness about the cards that life dealt.
As she comes from a wealthy family with some ties to nobility she was raised to think that pure Ice tribe members are superior, however the teaching never stuck. Jaderii has always thought that each tribe is equal in their own ways. She was also taught that hybrids were beneath her but she always found them fascinating. Their genetics interest her since she likes to see which traits are dominant over others. So her views of them are vastly different from the snobby inner circle of nobles.
Despite loving her home teritory she has a travelers heart. Mostly because she wishes to get far away from those that would push her into a fate she doesn't want but also because she wants to see the world outside of Zena. She is convinced there is more to the world than snow and in fact she knows this since the rumors of Yael and now Belrea have reached her ears. So she is now a young woman ready to explore.
Description Jaderii has long blue hair that reaches her lower back and is kept tied back in a weird fashion. Several mini-pony tails are used to keep her hair from straying. Her eyes are the palest yellow that the Ice tribe can have and her crystals are the darkest. Her skin is also on the dark end of the spectrum. Jade has a vertical scar on her right eye as well as a slanted horizontal one just below it on her cheek. Her right shoulder sports another two slanted scars and a longer scar runs down the outer length of her upper right arm. Her crystals are placed in small clusters on her neck, both shoulders, and just below her right clavicle.
Clothing She wears a sleeveless shirt that has a leather top with a herringbone design in a downward facing triangle, though it doesn't reach farther than her breast. The shirt also has a design on the left side to keep it from looking plain. Jaderii has a black pair of pants and an open long skirt over them. On her feet she prefers to wear calf high boots.
Accessories She likes to wear a headband in her hair, more for decoration than function, a bull nose ring, a decorative pair of earrings and a gaudy looking necklace that has a large diamond shape gem hanging at her cleavage.
Weapon Knives
History Jaderii, born Amalexia Houldeen, truly got her start when she decided to take her life in her own hands. She was one part of an arranged marriage and was none too pleased with the idea. Not only did she not like the person that had been chosen for her but she didn't want to marry simply for the sake of making her family more wealthy. So she tried everything that she could to put an end to the arrangement. When it became apparent that the only way she was going to get out of it was to get the guy to reject her she did something rash. She got her nose pierced in the most unattractive way she could think of. It not only marred her features but it made her look less noble. Her plan worked. A little too well. The guy took it to heart and rather than simply stop at rejecting her he took a blade to her face. He believed that if she wanted to be ugly then he would certainly help with that. The confrontation resulted in Jaderii having the two scars on her face as well as the several others on her arm as she struggled to get away.
Her family was embarrassed by her behavior and she was shunned. She was to be sent away to live with an estranged aunt so that she could relearn all that she had been taught growing up. How to be a lady and all. Jaderii didn't like the idea so in transit she ran away. From there she took on the mantle Jaderii and left Amalexia behind. Since she was also unprepared for life on her own she quickly took to stealing what she needed to survive and found out she was pretty good at it. Which led to her choice to become a full time bandit. Even though the title seems like one for a dangerous type she tends to make sure no one ever gets hurt when she steals. Sort of like a bandit with a heart of gold.

kaname423 Just some questions to start: How is she handsy but also evasive? How does she separate emotional attachment and vulnerability from physical intimacy? To me it would seem like someone who doesn't want to get close to someone wouldn't try to be physically close, since the other person wouldn't be able to interpret the lack of space with emotional detachment. Why does she think that all the races are equal in their own way if she was taught to think the ice earthlings were better? What changed her mind, or had her make up her mind to the contrary of what she was told from a young age? (same question for hybrids) Can you explain a little more about her history? Being a prentice, she's incredibly young for such a vicious act, and all of this before running away and changing her name. Why was she acting on ruining the arranged marriage? Did she fully understand what she was in for? Why would a boy, not even of age, take a knife to her face? I feel like we need to know more about how the parents arranged it and who this boy was. Why, after being attacked with a knife and permanently disfigured, would her family be embarrassed by her? Did they feel anything at all about this other family's child seriously physically harming their own child?
Jaderii likes hugs but it doesn't mean she wants to open up to the person and let them know everything about her. Also, since she didn't get too many hugs from her own parents she feels that others might not get them either and is willing to be the one that gives them out. She is just one of those people that doesn't view safe physical contact as emotional attachment. As far as physical intimacies, well she's too young for that so it's not an issue.
There is no special explanation for her not being racist like her family. It is just one of those situations where she didn't turn out like the bad apples in her family.
I want her to be on the older end of the prentice spectrum so age really isn't a big deal but what young teen wants to be forced into being with someone they don't like? Jaderii only wanted to get the boy to say he didn't want her and sought to make herself unattractive to him. His reaction is more based off his entitled upbringing. He knew how pretty she was before the piercing and thought she was a good match for him, so he was angry that she would want to deface herself and in turn added to what she had already done.
Her family was more embarrassed by her actions to end the arrangement than by her disfigured face. Since they are a wealthy family that take the views of others as a means to their status her actions put them in a position that made them lose face. So they sent her away to be known as their "problem" child rather than their heir. While the didn't like the violence that was done toward her it was seen as a reaction to her actions in the first place and so swept under the rug by the other family. Of course relations with the other family were strained afterwards but that's of no concern to Jaderii since she decided to leave. |
